Vatican II: The Catholicism Eradicator

Despite the best efforts of VII fanboys like George Weigel, nothing can hide the numbers that prove that the Council was an absolute failure.

Would the Church have had rough weather without Vatican II? Almost certainly. Would it have weathered those storms in better shape without Vatican II? Almost certainly. By every measure Vatican II was a disaster for the Church and I am tired of the pretense that it was some brilliant moment in the life of the Church. Pope John XXIII was a holy man, but not the brightest cleric around, whose health was beginning to fail. He allowed ambitious clerics around him to con him into calling Vatican II, and Vatican II quickly became a vehicle for clerics who didn’t much like Catholicism as it had been constituted for centuries. They turned Vatican II into a wreckovation project and we are still living among the ruins they created.
